About
Phillip Multop founded Multop & Associates in 1976 with a clear mission: to bring transparency, precision, and personalized attention to every client engagement. As a CPA with a Master's Degree in Taxation, as well as holding the Enrolled Agent designation with the US Treasury, Phil's deep expertise in tax strategy and financial services served as the foundation for guiding individuals and business owners through all phases of tax planning and business development.
Upon his retirement, after 44 years serving clients of the Pacific Northwest, Phil passed the baton to Clarity Tax, which has grown into a trusted partner for clients seeking high-quality accounting, tax preparation, and advisory services in the Bellingham, WA area and nationwide.
Vision
“I started Multop Financial, now Clarity Tax, because I believe everyone deserves straightforward, honest guidance when it comes to their finances. The name reflects the promise - clarity in every interaction, every return, every plan that's built together.”
